Oh so he’s on our side again? Unprincipled pie card labor fakirs like Shawn Fain are everything wrong with the labor movement in this country. He’s more interested in protecting his privileged position than in resisting MAGA.

The IWW got it right. Unions work best when we’re ALL the leader.

Republicrats and Demublicans ARE two sides of the same coin, Kamala wouldn’t have won the primary if the Dems had bothered to actually have one because her position on Israel/Palestine was the same as Genocide Joe’s.

The “you shoulda voted for Kamala” crap is SO lame and out of touch with reality.

vulgarweed.bsky.social @vulgarweed.bsky.social · 10h

My point is that if Kamala Harris was President of the United States now, these things would not be happening. "Both sides are the same" is completely false.

Remind me, how many primaries has Kamala won? Zero you say? I believe you were saying something about fairness and democracy…. Kamala never would have won a primary because of her support for Israel, she was a shitty candidate. Get over it. The Dems need to move to the Left.

Daytona Slim @daytonaslim.bsky.social · 8h

I’m annoyed with posturing liberals trying to vote shame people for not supporting yet another shitty Democratic candidate, Kamala was just another bourgeois neoliberal that supports Israel.

That’s to say nothing of Genocide Joe’s refusal to step aside until after it was too late to have a primary

Daytona Slim @daytonaslim.bsky.social · 8h

She should have tried harder to EARN votes then by having better positions. Supporting Israel and refusing to move to the left in general cost her the election.

Republicrats and Demublicans ARE two sides of the same coin. Sorry you hate when people point that out but that’s your problem.

Miami is almost as gentrified as New York is now. Those goddamn real estate people ruin everything!

Daytona Slim @daytonaslim.bsky.social · 20h

I think saying it would be 99% is a bit of an exaggeration. It’s not even 99% in America where the antifascist left is mostly underground. In Europe you actually have Socialist and Communist parties that win elections, it’s at most 50%, to say 99% is kind of disingenuous.
